I was chatting with a student yesterday in class, and he casually mentioned that his boss knows me. “Really?” I asked. “What’s his name?”
He told me, but I didn’t recognize it at all. Turns out, his boss also lives in Okubo and has seen me walking around. My student said that his boss often stands next to me on the train going and coming from work.
That’s kind of weird. Now I feel like everywhere I go, somebody could be watching. It’s a strange feeling – that’s for sure.
Today is Friday, and we’re looking forward to wine and cheese and some homemade French bread that Kuniko baked for dinner tonight. It should be a relatively easy day at work for both of us, but it’ll be nice to relax over a bottle of Malbec and get ready for the weekend.
